In reality we are all confused as to what is the real reason for such batteries acting like mini bombs….I mean these companies Nokia & Matsushita are really top-of-the-line….the best in the world.
Their SINCERITY can be ascertained from the following quote :
“Matsushita Electric Industrial Co (6752.T: Quote, Profile, Research) said on Friday that Nokia's (NOK1V.HE: Quote, Profile, Research) replacement of mobile phone batteries made by the Japanese electronics maker is likely to cost it 10-20 billion yen ($86-$172 million).
Nokia, the world's largest mobile phone maker, earlier this month warned consumers that 46 million batteries made by Panasonic-brand maker Matsushita and used in its cellphones could overheat, and offered to replace them for free.”
These guys are taking in huge losses for the benefit of the customer. So, it’s definitely not the fault of these companies.
So, why are these batteries over-heating and causing such a danger?
A few of my tech friends say it’s a VIRUS !
The virus is attacking Mobile Operating Systems, and if you happen to have these 3 factors, the battery can burst:
1. The mobile battery is charging.
2. The power is on.
3. While it’s charging, you attend a call, or press on a function.
The modus operandi of the virus is still unknown……..but they say it’s affecting the circuit – battery firmware interface.
